User friendliness

Smart tilting device at outfeed side

Voortman paid a lot of attention to optimizing the user friendliness of the V505-160T angle punching and shearing machine. The outfeed side of the machine comes with a special tilting device which lifts for short products and feeds the long products onto the outfeed roller conveyor. The outfeed roller conveyor can tilt to both sides for unloading. Underneath the shear at the outfeed side there is space for a removable waste bin on wheels which is delivered standard with the machine.

Lightweight punching blocks

Removing and replacing punching blocks can be a complex and time consuming activity. To optimize ease of use, the Voortman V505-160T is designed as such that each punching block only weighs 7 kg each, enabling easy tool changing for the machine operator. Furthermore, the easily accessible die is separated from the punch and fixed in the punching frame itself.

VACAM operating software

Just like all other machines from Voortman, the Voortman V505-160T is operated and controlled by its proprietary and very user friendly VACAM software. All Voortman machines have the same “look-and-feel” which significantly reduces the learning curve for the operator.
